Young. "Mr Griffin is out of the city, and will

1t was a fact well known to the bland Mr.
Gray that Mr.. Griffin would not sign the certif

COULDN'T INFLUENCE THE MAYOR.
Two Prominent Men Who Get Into a Humil
iating Predicament Sent to Jail.

The Mayors courtroom was crowded with the
curious yesterday morning, when Edward j. HUI
Der, councilman of Columbus, this State. and
John Wood, of Chicago, were arragned for plan
ming the ruin of the twin sisters Elite and Nette
Gumb The defendants asked that the matter
be fixed up without their coming into court, but
the Mayor, who believes in dealing out justice to
all alike, ordered an open trial. Tie prosecu-
tor made but little effort to convict them. be-
cause he explains, he did not believe the
charge could be sustained. When the girls were
put upon the stand they acknowledged that
they had been criminally indscreet before. The
Mayor, however, did not like the mystery sur
rounding the whole proceedings. and. as he
could not let the men go with a clear conscience,
he bound them over to the grand jury, and fixed
their bond at 81, 900 each. Commissioner Sahm
refused to go another bond for Huber, and
both gentlemen went to Jail. Through their at
torney they instituted habeas corpus proceed
ings, but later in the day that move was dropped,
and the grand Jury consented to investigate the
case at once. The girls were summoned, but
did not reach the court house il time and the
case went over until to-day. Both the defend
ants are prominent men. and are deeply numiI
lated over their predicament

A GREAT PARTY LEADER.
"reminiscences of Gen. William Henry Harri.
sons Exciting Presidential Campaign.

Yesterday was the anniversary OF the birth of
William Henry Harrison. and. according to the
custom of the Tippecnnee Club, the event was
celebrated by them with special meeting
which was held in the city courtroom. Be-
tween thirty and forty members Of the club
we're present The only exercise was an ad-
dress by William P. Fishback. He reviewed at
length the rise and fall of the Wing party. and
related many interesting incidents connected
with the campaigns of 1910, AZ and Al. The
scenes Of General Harrison's campaign, in 1870
were graphically portrayed. The country, he
said, had. seen nothing like the cam
pagn before or since. The people were
thoroughly aroused, and a campaign meeting
brought out all tho people for miles around. The
real stump orator was abroad in the land in
those davs The campaigns of Tom Corwiu of
Ohio, in 1902, were described. The speaker
thought that Corwin was of the greatest
stump orators OF the century. Notwithstanding
the excitement in election time in those DAYS
there was no bribery, and no illegal voting and
doctoring returns by forging tally sheets, was
never thought of. Harrson's great victory of 1910
was not victory after all. for it was all lost by
the untimely death of General Harrison. After
his death the party gradually died for want of a
leader. The campaign of lS44 was exciting but
not as much SO as the nae of 1870. In 1874 the
Wings lost their holi because Clay was not q
true Wing Like tbs politicians of to-day, he
began to be for policy and not for principle and
his carrying water on both shoulders caused the
par.y's downfall There were stalwart polit
clans in that dag who did not bow to the dictates
Of secret party caucuses. He thought that TO

AN INDICTMENT FOR MURDER NoLLIED
The indictment against John Rounds, as &C
cessory to James Goodrich in the murder OF
Walter Hinesley, was nollied by Prosecutor
Mitchell yesterday, and the colored youth was
released from Jail. The evidence in the Good
rich trial developed the fact that there was nc
no case against Rounds, and hence the dismis
sal. 1t came out that he only asked Goodrich
to help him during the scuff1e between himself and
Hinesley, and there is no evidence that he knew
Goodrich intended to shoot, or that he carried q
revolver. Goodrich will at once be taken to the
northern prison to spend the remainder of hi.
